I had a problem of Final Cut Pro 6.02

my question is, how can i save a project which is able to be opened in the previous version. as long as i update my FCP from 6.0 to 6.02, after i done my editing, and then go to Uni and try to open in my classmate MacPro. the project(save) can be opened in her MacPro. there is a notice which is warnning us, the save can't be opened, cos the saving is too new version.
Pls pls pls....help me! as my assignment deadline is on this monday. pls help me and tell me how can i open the saving in the previous version FCP!!!
THX VERY MUCH FOR UR HELPING!!!

You can try to do that:
File>Export>XML
That way it should make project open on different FCP version. Remember to choose "Include Master Clips Outside Selection" such that it will include all sub-images/footages.
Hope that will help.

  • HT5149 Hi, I still have problems reinstalling Final Cut Pro even though I followed these steps. Didn´t find "com.apple.motionapp.plist" to remove though, but the others I found. Reason why I have to reinstall is because I have repaired my Macbook Pro hard

    Hi, I still have problems reinstalling Final Cut Pro even though I followed these steps.
    Reason why I have to reinstall is because I have repaired my Macbook Pro hard drive at a Mac Authorized Repair.
    Short history of repair and my Final Cut Pro installation:
    1. Macbook Pro stopped working, sendt it for repair. Had the Final Cut Pro installed,
    2. Desided to try a MiniMac and recovered my backup with Time Machine, got the Final Cut Pro working.
    3. Got my Macbook Pro back from repair, did backup on this one as well. But this time only the files not the Applications.
    4. Removed the files as mentioned in HT5149. Didn´t find "com.apple.motionapp.plist" to remove though, but the others I found.
    5. When I try to install Final Cut Pro from App Store, it downloads the application as planned. But after download it won´t show in the Application folder nor in the downloads folder, nor will it start an installation prosess. If I pause the installation in App Store, I can see the Final Cut Pro icon in my Dock. (But, as mentioned, after installation it won´t show neither here or in the Applications folder).
    Any suggestions on what I should try now?
    Thanks for any reply, I´m in deep water here...

    Sounds like there is a file you're not getting.  Never do a removal manually.  It's so time consuming and a pain.  There's a very easy and fast way to do this, safely, properly.
    Get the free "Final Cut Remover" app from Digital Rebellion (dot com), use this to remove FCP X.
    Reboot the Mac.
    Download from scratch.
    If you're not seeing FCP X in your app folder, run Disk Utility to Repair all drives.
    If that doesn't help, try running Disk Warrior from Altsoft to repair the directories on all drives.

  • I had downloaded and used Final Cut Pro 7 (studio 3) on my mac, but it died. Can I download it to my new computer without buying a new copy? I'm not sure of the number of installations for academic copies. How would I do this?

    AH...good. 
    There is no limit on the times you can install it from the DVDs. There's just a limit as to being able to run it on multiple machines AT THE SAME TIME. If your old computer dies, or you sell it (please reformat the drive so they don't get FCP for free), then you can install on a new computer fine.  And you are allowed to install on (1) desktop and (1) laptop at the same time as well...but only use it on one machine at any given time. Meaning you can use it on the desktop at work, and then when away from the office, on your laptop.
    Long story short...you can install it fine without any issues.

  • Problems with Final Cut Pro HD Academic Version?

    Is anyone out here having problems with the academic version of Final Cut Pro?
    1) Erratic capturing capability---Was able to capture for a few days, and now audio isn't in sync with video during playback.
    2) Sudden shutdowns of program
    3) Dropped frames
    4) Scratch disk QT files were in sync, and now they're playing sluggishly, indicating dropped frames.
    I'm no expert, but I've never had such erratic problems with a software program before. I'd appreciate any help anyone can give me. I've taken my computer in and gotten a second hard drive, had our operating system reinstalled.

  • HT4740 How can I avoid or solve the problem of Final Cut Pro crashes when trying to Show Events Library?

    When I try to Show Events Library in Final Cut Pro, it crashes each time. Please tell me how do I work around this problem?

    Try creating a new (temporary) folder and putting all your events in there - then launch FCP X.
    If you can open the Browser, then it's possible one or more of the clips in one of your events is corrupt. Close the app and move the events back into their original places one by one (re-starting FCP X each time). This will help you find the event which has the corrupt file in it.
    If isolating the events has no effect, I suggest you trash your preferences.
    Unexplained faults like this can often be fixed by clearing out FCP X's preferences (for some reason, they get knotted up from time to time).
    Download Digital Rebellion's Preference Manager (free, simple to use, and perfectly safe, both to download and use).
    http://www.digitalrebellion.com/prefman/
    With Preference Manager, you can backup the Prefs when FCP X (or any of the Apple Professional Applications) are working normally. Then when either of the applications are acting strangely, Trash the Preferences, then Restore from your backups (just a mouse-click).
    If you trash the prefs and don't restore them, you will need to manually restore all your FCP X settings again, so it's a great idea to backup Preferences from time to time when FCP X is working well, then your backups are up to date.
    Doesn't fix every problem, but it fixes a lot.

  • Problem inporting final cut pro documents

    I import video and edit it using Final Cut Pro 5.0.1. I export it using QuickTime video with DV NSTC coding. I use iMovie to compress the video (usually around 10-15 gigs) to podcast them using iWeb. It works like a charm about half the time. The other half iMovie will not let me even import the video into it. It tells me that there is an unknown error and wont let me import the video. But then Ill try a different video, imported and exported the same way and it will work fine. I need some help. i cant figure out what the problem is.

    I'll wager that while you moved the media/renders to an external drive, you didn't change the Waveform Cache, Thumbnail Cache, Autosave Vault, etc...

  • Audio problem with Final Cut Pro x. (New to x)

    Hello,
    I recently switched over to Final Cut Pro x and am just now starting to get adjusted. I just ran into this problem and I'm having trouble solving on my own. Here you go...
    I just imported a bunch of video into my "event" and went through and logged everything. Everything sounds fine until I drag my clips onto the timeline. Once I drag them down the audio gets lower and sounds very muffled. Does anyone know what would be the cause of this?
    Thanks!
    Clayton

    What are the exact specs of the original media? Open in the QT player and report what it says in the movie inspector.

  • Graphic problem with Final cut pro X

    Hello
    Since some days I have graphical problems, it seems it is related to final cut pro X (10.0.8), all other programms are running well.
    When I import events to my project the graphic is ok:
    After modification, example: here stabilization on, I have some colored pixels in the preview:
    After this happens once, I found some colored pixel also in other programs or on the background picture.
    I'm not sure if I have a problem with final cut or with the graphic card. When I use my iMac without final cut, I found no problems
    Can anybody help me? Thank you

    Thank you for you answer.
    I have 12 GB Memory and Final Cut Pro X was working properly until now.
    The problem occure already at the preview windows, as soon as I close Final cut the graphic background looks good again.
    I found that I have a similar problem also with iMovie, so I think it is maybe a hardware and not a software problem.
    The hardware test does not show any problems, do you know another method to test the graphic card?

  • I'm having problems installing final cut pro pls who can help.

    i just bought a macbook pro and i have a final cut pro, i've had it for two years now. i tried installing it to my new computer its not installing. please i want to know is it because the final cut is old or there is other reason.

    Hi ...
    Since you purchased Final Cut Pro two years ago, then post your question in the Final Cup Pro forum here.
    This forum is for apps that have been purchased and downloaded from the App Store which has only been available since Jan 2011.

  • Timelapse problem with final cut pro x

    I am looking to make a timelapse in final cut pro x using a lot of different pictures. I believe to do this you make them all into a compound clip and then retime them to however fast you want it to be. For whatever reason, it is not playing as if i put all of the photos in and when i play it fast it just shows one still image. any idea how to make it play fast, and work, and show all of them photos in a fast sequence playback other then a single photo or two?

    I think your problem is that you are applying the retime to the compound clip. The problem is that when you do this you are retiming the compound clip as a whole, not each picture. This explains why you are seeing only 1 or 2 pictures, because you are cutting down on the length of time the compound clip is shown, not how long each picture is shown. You need to edit each picture. And rather than do a retime I would set the duration of each picture since retiming a still image isn't really necessary. Take the pictures out of the compound clip (or start a new project), put the pictures in the timeline, select all pictures in the timeline (CMD+A), CTRL+D (this is the keyboard shortcut for change duration of selected clips), enter in a numerical value, press return. The number you enter will effectively adjust the speed of the timelapse. By default FCPX displays the timecode as HH:MM:SS:FF so if you enter a one and a zero and then press enter the duration will be changed to 10 frames. The number of frames you want to choose for the duration you are setting will be up to you and the frame rate of the project. That should give you the result you are looking for. If you need any clarification I'll do what I can.

  • Installation Problem with Final Cut Pro X Training Disc

    How do I allow read/write permissions with the sparseimage final cut pro X apple pro training series disc?  I can't copy the project files to my desktop.

    Thanks for the response.  I'm not quite sure I understand.  I can't copy the file anywhere:  The Desktop, HD, Even an external hard disk due to (Error-36) which has something to do with the read/write permissions.  I've checked my disk and I'm listed as the administrator with both of these privileges.  I can't seem to get read/write from the DVD itself. It's most confusing!!!!!!  I'm able to download all other kinds of video from my external sources, but I can't seem to get an uncorrupted file into FCPX.

  • Interlace problem with Final Cut Pro

    Hi,
    I have been using Final Cut Studio now from September and I am still learning things. I still have one problem that is persistent and have not found a solution anywhere, not in help or anywhere:
    - I shoot my videos with Canon EOS 5D mark II DSLR at 1920x1080 30p.
    - I want to keep the resolution and 30p, with no interlace spoiling the image
    - I have been recently successful avoiding the disease called interlace, however now I started trying out the SmoothCam filter and each time after using it my image is ruined with interlace. It is in the rendered video as well, no matter if I use Compressor or FCP Quicktime conversion to render, despite I have selected 1920x1080 30p as output.
    This is very aggravating because I don't want to know where the interlace is needed since I have no displays that would support interlace and don't know anybody who still would have (everybody is using FullHD something, so I try to create FullHD progressive content only, no tube television support of any kind is desired).
    Here is a short example video how the FCP forces interlace. Look at the eyes on 1080p display:
    http://www.katix.org/karoliina/media/aki.mov
    Everything in my chain is 1080 30p progressive. I don't have anything interlaced anywhere. Still after smoothcam rendering the result ends this crappy. How can I fix this or is this a bug in the software?

    I can't answer the question about MXF.
    To the second question, are all parts of the FCS suite inside the top level of the Applications folder?
    You must not rename, move them elsewhere or place them in a sub-folder. The updater will not see them.

  • Problems with Final Cut Pro HD 4.5

    Hi gang
    I posted something similar a few weeks ago about this problem, and since then, my problem has only gotten worse. Here's the basics: I'm using FCP HD 4.5 on a MacBook (apparently that's trouble right there.) I did the thing where you change something in the properties to get around the required video card. So the program works, right? Sure.
    I shot some video on a Cannon XL-2 (which I thought was Hi-Def, but apparently it's not.) The camera was rented, so I obviously don't have it anymore. I have been trying to import the video on to my laptop, via an external hard drive (like 30GB) using a Sony Handycam (borrowed from my office.)
    The first problem was that there was no audio on the tapes shot on the XL. I'm going to go ahead and say that some how....that was my fault. Not sure how, but I'll take the blame. Now, I'm trying to import this silent footage, and I keep running into a problem, and that problem is this: the important stops after a few seconds, and there's a message about how there is some kind of error on the tape. This is super frustrating, and I think when I was working on this the other night, the tape eventually just stopped showing video, even though something is obviously there.
    Now, here's a few questions. Is it because I'm using a somewhat small external hard drive that may not have enough space on it to keep processing the video? Is it because I'm using a different camera to try and get this video? Should I try using another Cannon, or should I go as far as to track down another XL-2 to rent? Is it something wrong with Final Cut? Some setting or something?
    If someone could help me out, I'd appreciate it.

    The XL-2 does not shoot 'High Def". It records DV in either 4:3 or 16:9 anamorphic formats.
    Here's my standard "so you are using a Canon camcorder to capture and it isn't working" routine:
    Not all Canon cameras have connection issues, but hanging around this site I've come to recognize their ability to connect in FCP is the most problematic of all the camera brands. If you have a Canon camcorder, and can not get it to connect up with FCP, the following is a way to sort through the issues and get it to work. Some are elegant - some are ugly.
    Before we go any farther
    -you should be using 'Firewire Basic' as the control protocol. If you aren't, go change it and try again.
    -Also, verify that you have a solid installation of Quicktime. You may want to reinstall it using the 'delete receipts' method. Do a quick search here on the site - it is mentioned daily if not hourly.
    With some confidence that the software installation and camera settings are correct and it still won't capture correctly, you are most likely a victim of the dread 'Canon firewire bus incompatibility problem'. Simply stated: Canon cameras do not play well with other devices on the same firewire bus. And, since all the firewire ports on a Mac connect to one bus - well - you get the picture.
    The most direct solution is to purchase another, non-Canon device to use as your capturing machine. The Sony DSR-11 is highly recommended for DV work. A deck will save wear and tear on the camera's lightweight drive mechanism and will allow you to permanently connect a NTSC/PAL monitor for proper viewing. (If you are working with HDV, you will have other issues ...)
    Beyond replacing your tape playback device, the path you take depends on the model of computer you own.
    1. If you have a G5 tower or a MacPro, capture to a second internal drive with only the camera attached. If you need to move material to firewire drive, disconnect the camera. A second internal drive is quite inexpensive these days if you do not already have one.
    2. If you have a G5 tower (PCI) MacPro (PCI), G4 powerbook (PCMCIA) or MacBookPro (Expresscard 34) with an available slot, purchase the appropriate firewire card for the slot. Connect your camera to the card and you should be good to go. The new card creates a unique bus and will avoid collisions with the external drives.
    3. If you do not have a slot or a second internal drive and you are stuck with the camera, welcome to the camera/drive shuffle.
    - shut down and remove the external hard drive(s) from the system
    - connect the camera directly to the firewire port of the computer
    - start the camera then the computer
    - capture to your internal (system) hard drive
    - shut down the camera and computer
    - disconnect the camera and reconnect the external hard drive(s)
    - start hard drive(s) and computer
    - move captured files to external hard drive(s)
    - edit
    If you output back to tape or wish to view your work on an external Video (NTSC or PAL) monitor, you need to set up the camera to use the firewire out as the A/DV converter or VTR - which means reversing the steps:
    - copy the file back to the internal drive
    - shut everything down
    - disconnect the external drive(s)
    - connect the camera to the firewire port (and the TV to the camera if needed)
    - start the camera then the computer
    - play the file.
    One caveat here - You may have difficulty getting the file back to tape without dropping frames. Playing files off of the system drive is very demanding and they may have a hard time keeping up.
    All in all, if you do not have the option for second bus (i.e. iMacs, eMacs, iBooks, MacBooks) you may want to think about a computer with expandable options next time.
    There is the option of capturing using iMovie, but that brings on it's own set of problems and is not recommended.
    Good luck.
